Good progress there. We're unifying the XL and PRO foam designs, so we only have one set of foam. We've gone to much more expensive, sturdier material, which allows us to have thinner walls, which in turn has given us space to fit all the common accessories (tamper, milk jug, thermometer, scale, WDT tool) in the

Yes, exactly. I think that the $99 retrofit will be available in June. We yesterday heard that the 2nd attempt at moulding our parts was complete and the samples are on their way to us. We initially had trouble getting them to fall off the mould, and then we had problems with screw hole sizes

I purchased my Bezzera Magica from iDrinkcoffee a few years ago and am quite happy with the espresso it produces but my good wife complains about the noise of it starting up in the morning and the rattle of the vibratory pump. In addition, plumbing the unit into the waterline would be a nice option. I am

Not just yet! I'll have more time to experiment next week so I'll give it a try. I haven't had any 98mm burrs (yet) so can't compare. Thanks!

Tried letting the ground coffee sit for a little bit before extracting. Made it worse. Now 18gms runs thru in 13 seconds. I think one of 2 things has happened here, either this is just a bad batch, which I've had happen with other roasters, or this coffee just isn't going to work with my setup. I'll just

There are plenty of pics available via DrGoggle - but none clearly show the seals/pins in place

I bought some spare bellows from Migg last time I bought a spring from him. I identified US based source for the microswitch that is used in this marvelous device, but I can't find it right now. I think the manufacturer was Temco, but I am not certain. Migg might have them as well?

Anything that holds up well at high temperature. And easy to remove. It seems that permabond A131 is a good fit used by some manufacturers but they are hard to get. I've used loctite 542 but they adds to the difficulty to removing. Also any problem with using an impact wrench to remove? Will there be any
